The last time I wrote for this.. Man U came out as winner. They were the winner amongs equal,the other side being Chelsea.That result was neither a great sight for the russian(Owner of Chelsea) nor to myself specially when they loose title in Russia itself.This time the better, the fanatstic and the beautiful came out to held hand on the glitzy Champions league trophy.Barca stick to the plans they are best at.. maintained possession , made fine passes and were great in midfield. Xavi and Ineista were no lesser to Man U , electrifying Messi( Man of the Match) was also instrumental.ManU experimented with the formation only to get unbalanced . The Ronaldo effect was subdued by lack of support from midfield.Infact Barca won it more in midfield itself. Rome was not that thundurous blame it to majority of complacent ManU supporters who only came to watch an anticipated victory and could not inspire and motivate their side up in the downturn when ManU were lagging after 10 mins. btw I like o...

'Safe' climate means 'no to coal' Coal is one of the largest contributor to CO2 emissions along with fossil fuels.It took us 250 years to burn the first half trillion of it , and on current projections we'll burn the next half trillion in less than 40 years.About three-quarters of the world's fossil fuel reserves must be left unused if society is to avoid dangerous climate change, scientists warn.More than 100 nations support the goal of keeping temperature rise below 2C. But the scientists say that without major curbs on fossil fuel use, 2C will probably be reached by 2050. Writing in Nature , they say politicians should focus on limiting humanity's total output of CO2 rather than setting a "safe" level for annual emissions. "To avoid dangerous climate change, we will have to limit the total amount of carbon we inject into the atmosphere, not just the emission rate in any given year,"The UN climate convention, agreed at the 1992 Rio Ea...

For past few days I have been wondering why am I feeling a lil heavy in my mind... n I consulted to the doc with in myself... It was a disease called wanderlust. Came weekend and there I was..in the Jungle.. the Jim Corbett national park.. the serene , calm wild spreading arms for like 1500 sqkms.Even though it wasn't the best time to visit the place(usually happens to be after monsoon).. it was satisfying to my senses.The wanderlust aint over but I felt relieved.... seems like a nice idea for future camping!! ready?

Last week was filled with a lot of action for the people who follow Tennis and football. In tennis they witnessed two mega matches in Australian open Rafael nadal Vs Verdasco ( semi) and Rafa Vs Federar in final. Both are memorable one specially the moment came after federar started tearing down. In BPL , Liverpool took on Chelsea only to beat them 2-0. Away match aint working for Chelsea these days. They gotta improve alot as the still have little hope to make a comeback. I loved the news about inclusion of Qurasma into the squad. Guess he'll make the difference and we will see Chelsea playing the same b'ful game. Still there is a lot of action to watch for... The world is still beautiful..Isn't it?

Just realized there is major lack of updates... no more Im gonna focus on more focussed and less generic content for a while The world is still beautiful..Isn't it?
